CIT, which is located in Cebu City, Philippines, is a well-established institution of learning especially in the field of engineering and technology; She is the proud Alma Mater of thousands of professionals who are now scattered all over the world.
Several years ago, some CIT alumni who were living in Texas, USA, decided to start an international reunion. The legend says that it started as a half-hearted proposal, maybe just a plain and simple joke, in someone's kitchen table, probably driven by some nostalgic memories of their good ol' days back in CIT.
But two years later, that little joke which began as a little party in Texas, became a bigger event in Southern California. And then, after another two years, it became a huge one in Washington, DC! Then in July, 1996, it became an even bigger one when it was held in Cebu City, Philippines. Needless to say, other past reunions - Chicago (1998), Toronto, Canada(2000), Las Vegas (2002), Cebu (2004, & 2006) and San Francisco (2008) were all resounding successes!
Thus, in just a few years, the CIT International Alumni Reunion has become so Grand, - far beyond the original expectations of Henry Paredes(God rest his soul!) and his friends who originally conceived the idea back in Texas, USA!
The next International Reunion will be held in Las Vegas in 2012!
